It was rather irritating when the debate ended suddenly when the girl started yelling at Samira for voicing her opinions. But whatever. She shot Cass a quick, slightly nervous look. Did Cass believe in that stuff, too? Cuz if she did, then that would be awkward...

"Oh, me, too!" said Samira vehemently. "I've always been better at the practical stuff. Charms, Transfiguration, DADA...that's my kind of subject." She grinned. "Even Potions, because it's really all about following direction." She had a feeling some people did a horrid job on their potion because of Professor Lafay. True, the lady was quite intimidating, but Samira didn't find her scary. You just had to stay on her good side. "Do you like Lafay?" she asked suddenly.

"I know, right?" Cass said with a nod, seriously subjects like that should only be taken by seers or people who are constantly 'in the beyond'. Snort. Then she gasped slightly when Samira told her a story about a Gryffindor that she had met. Why would people think that? "If that was the case, then we wouldn't have a need for choices now, would we?" She said with a light snort accompanied by a roll of her eyes. She really disliked people who thought that way, after all, life is what you make it. Never the other way around. Divination - if it was actually worth something - is simply the art of foretelling what might happen to you because of your choices. Not shaping your choices to meet that prediction of what might happen to you.

She couldn't help but grin, "That's what a wand is for, isn't it? For practical use." Then she laughed lightly "It would be stupid to use it to solve math problems and such." That's what a quill and parchment was for.

Cass then chuckled when Samira mentioned Lafay "Who isn't?" She joked "But seriously? Not really. I mean, I do find her intimidating, and I'm afraid of making mistakes around her, but as long as you're not messing anything up she a very amiable woman." Ok...maybe not that amiable.
